    Not Only Does Your Body Bang, But I Miss the Conversation Too

    Hello everyone, we’re back! We’re sorry for the long delay but as you will hear we fell ill! Do you guys hit with the dairy coughs in the way that we do? Anywho on to the culture! The Golden Globes have come and gone we talk the fashion and the awards and appropriate domestic animals. Ryann discusses her thoughts about the series finale of Stranger Things (spoilers from minute 27 to 32 if you care!) Jillian watched the latest season of Emily in Paris and saw an old flame! Ryann watched Heated Rivalry of course (3 times over the holidays) but Jillian probably won’t watch of course. She is rewatching the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills though! We quickly touch on the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City reunion (part one). Are there housewives you ride for that no one else does? Ryann watched the People We Meet on Vacation and shares some thoughts! Also will Ryann get bangs?! All this and more!

    The Whimsical Epidemic

    Happy Birthday Slyne!! We start off the pod with some hair woes and discussions of our changing hair texture. Then Jillian wants to know if former PM Justin Trudeau is gainfully employed? And also gives Ryann a history lesson on who becomes the President of the US if the Vice President also resigns; the line of succession if you will. Jillian watched the film Heat as well. Ryann wants to know who these betches are - do you know? George Clooney is in a Netflix film called Jay Kelly, but more importantly Jillian needs to know why he is trying to front about paying his own bills! Ryann saw Wicked: For Good and shares some thoughts (SPOILERS for WICKED: FOR GOOD from 26-36 minutes) Would you guys say you’re whimsical? Would anyone in their thirties or forties? Who can Jill beat in arm wrestle? What movies are in your Adam Sandler hall of fame? All of this and more!!

    The White Wealth Tour of Newport

    Happy post-Thanksgiving friends! We're back to regale you with tales of our Thanksgiving celebrations (which we spent separately, GASP)! But first a quick Diddy detour (spoiler: we haven't watched the Netflix series yet and Jillian isn't going to). Speaking of Netflix Ryann spent the week of Thanksgiving with The Hunting Wives and tried to explain to Jill what in the tarnation goes on in that program (HUNTING WIVES SPOILERS from 18:30 - 27:10). Jillian gives us the rundown on Variety's Actors on Actors lineup and tells us who she is most excited to see interact. (Also how did I not make a Whitney Wild Rose joke when Jill told me for the millionth time that I have to watch the film Wild Rose - I'm slipping) We also have a quick Robert Downer Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow aside, are you surprised? Ryann spent even more time with Netfllix because she watched the first "act" of Stranger Things season five, and you know what? She really liked it! Will Byers, you're my boy! Do y'all know about the book series The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton? Did you know it's going to be a film starring a lot of cool cats? Neither did we. Jillian tells us which two films Tom Hanks won Oscars for back to back (Jill, you got it right)! Cheers!
